That 109E...
Ed, thank you, as ever, for finding and posting these links. It's always a treat.
Larry,
It reminds me of Bf 109E-1 WNr.5375 of the Stab/JG 53, which was photographed at La Villiaze, Guernsey.
It was lost 5.Sept. 1940 while being flown by Hptm. Wilhelm Meyerweissflog, a 51 year old Stabsoffizer. P.o.W. near Monkton near Manston.

Hope this helps, GRM
